In September's straw poll, residents of the Schenevus and Worcester central school districts approved a proposal to combine the two districts into a single district by annexation merger. A binding referendum will be held in December 2021. The outcome of the December vote will determine whether the districts merge. All eligible voters are strongly encouraged to vote in December. This vote is the final stage in the merger process.
